This is because in Python 3 any folder (having an __init__.py or not) below the PYTHONPATH is a package (so, PyDev is just reflecting a change on Python itself).
The difference in Python 3 is that if it has an __init__.py file, it's a regular package and can't be extended from other places in the PYTHONPATH, if it doesn't have an __init__.py it automatically becomes a namespace package (in which case any place in the PYTHONPATH with the same structure will be part of that namespace).
